Went out at 7:00 am and did 1/2 mile around my neighborhood block. At 7 am, I figure it's ok to twist and shout with Chubby Checker while walking in the middle of the street! At least in Gym Virgin land it is. LOL
Saw a neighbor's driveway and it had a hopscotch drawn on it. Glad to know that in this city there are children who still hop some scotch. We did that back in the day. Does anybody remember 4 square? I loved that game.
Later gators!

I wanna dance with somebody....it's raining men...i think we're alone now...loco-motion...burning love...a little less conversation and a little more action...jungle love...the twist...lady marmalade...ain't no way...black velvet
This is my walk out music for January 2011. I went out at 7:30 am and walked 1/2 mile. yes, it hurt. but I did it. Stopped at the mail box station in my neighborhood and did step ups on the curb.
That's all for now, gotta go climb a mountain at work.

So today is the first day of the best year ever! Today, I walked in Maumelle. I AM NOT A MAUMELLIAN. I can't afford Maumelle. But I do shop there and walk there. Today's walk include seeing the car wash (where I wash my car). Down the street is the new place called WokaWoka. I want to go there. Sounds like my kinda place. Next I saw this unbelievably gorgeous piece of machinery that ever came out of Detroit...a 1969 SS red with black stripes. The guy was standing there with his car and we talked. He restores cars. Said this little number would do a 100 mph easy. He wants $ 30k for it. I do so love a good looking car!!!!!

So I had 30 minutes to kill, so I hop in my car and go down to the Clinton Library. Went walking all around the place. This taking pictures on the walk really makes the time pass faster.
This morning I trekked all over St Vincent Hospital Campus and was going to count that as the walk for the day, but my sister said I couldn't. WAH!

Well my sister called. and chewed me out about the hiatus. She said I must have been on hiatus for the last 2 months as there have not been that many posts! Well dang it, she is right. I just decided to make it official. However she won't let me.
Then the same day that I talked to sister, my BFF from the 10th floor at work (Keshia) comes to my office and wants to talk about my exercise and what I have been doing. I tried changing the subject multiple times BUT SHE WOULDN'T LET ME. So next week she is going to call me every day and ask did I walk around the block at lunch time. Every single day she is going to call me. So the Gym Virgin is now back on the wagon. Accountability sucks.

Did a mile at Lake V today. The ducks and geese have migrated over there and their crap has followed. I wish the City of Maumelle would get rid of these feathered creatures or at least take them somewhere far, far, away.
Somebody online asked me to be part of a recipe chain letter. So I thought I would share my holiday recipe of the season with you. Here goes:
Paula's Peanut Butter Reese Cup Cookies
(1) roll of PB cookie dough
(1) package of reese cup mini deals
set oven to 350. Put scoops of dough on a cookie sheet in whatever size floats your boat. Cook for 8 minutes. While hot put a reese cup mini deal on top of them. Step back, admire your work, and call yourself a chef!
